And most surely you conform (yourself) to sublime morality.
           (Qur'an, 68:4)
           Correct and courteous words accompanied by forgiveness are
           better than charity followed by insulting words. Allah is Rich
           Beyond Need, All-Forbearing. (Qur'an, 2:263)
           Who could say anything better than someone who summons to
           Allah and acts rightly and says, 'I am one of the Muslims'? (Qur'an,
           41:33)
           Those who believe and do right actions and perform prayer and
           give alms, will have their reward with their Lord. They will feel
           no fear and will know no sorrow. (Qur'an, 2:277)
           Except for those who, after that, repent and put things right. Truly
           Allah is Ever-Forgiving, Most Merciful (Qur'an, 3:89)
           As for those who believe and do right actions— We impose on no
           self any more than it can bear— they are the Companions of the
           Garden, remaining in it timelessly, for ever. (Qur'an, 7:42)
           THEY COMPETE IN DOING GOOD
           We responded to him and gave him Yahya, restoring for him his
           wife's fertility. They outdid one another in good actions, calling out
           to Us in yearning and in awe, and humbling themselves to Us.
           (Qur'an, 21:90)
           Such people are truly racing towards good things, and they are the
           first to reach them. (Qur'an, 23:61)
           Then We made Our chosen servants inherit the Book. But some
           of them wrong themselves; some are ambivalent; and some outdo
           each other in good by Allah's permission. That is the great favour.
           (Qur'an, 35:32)
           Mankind! We created you from a male and female, and made you
           into peoples and tribes so that you might come to know each other.
           The noblest among you in Allah's sight is the one who best
           performs his duty. Allah is All-Knowing, All-Aware. (Qur'an,
           49:13)
